How much does a concrete driveway cost in Georgia?

A standard plain concrete driveway in Georgia costs $5 to $8 per square foot installed. Stamped or decorative concrete driveways run $10 to $18 per square foot. For a typical two-car driveway (approximately 600 sq ft), expect $3,000 to $4,800 for plain concrete and $6,000 to $10,800 for stamped. Factors affecting price include driveway size, finish type, site access, tear-out requirements, and whether rebar or wire mesh reinforcement is used. Greenstone Landscaping provides free on-site estimates throughout Loganville, Monroe, Winder, Lawrenceville, and northeast Georgia — call 404-547-5771.

How long does a concrete driveway last in Georgia?

A properly installed concrete driveway in Georgia lasts 25 to 40 years. Longevity depends on base preparation quality, concrete mix strength, reinforcement, control joint placement, and periodic sealing. Georgia's freeze-thaw cycles in winter and extreme summer heat make proper installation critical. Greenstone uses 4,000 PSI concrete, rebar reinforcement, proper base compaction, and strategic control joint cutting to maximize driveway lifespan in Georgia's climate.

How thick should a concrete driveway be in Georgia?

Residential concrete driveways in Georgia should be a minimum of 4 inches thick for passenger vehicles. Driveways that will regularly handle heavy trucks, RVs, or commercial vehicles should be 5 to 6 inches thick. Greenstone Landscaping pours all residential driveways at 4 inches minimum with rebar or wire mesh reinforcement and a 4 to 6 inch compacted gravel sub-base. For heavy-duty applications, we recommend 5 inches with rebar on 18-inch centers.

Do I need a permit to pour a concrete driveway in Georgia?

Most Georgia municipalities require a permit for new concrete driveway installation or driveway replacement, especially if the work involves the area between the sidewalk and the curb (the apron) or if you are widening the driveway. Greenstone Landscaping handles permit applications as part of our project management service. We know the permitting requirements for Walton, Gwinnett, Barrow, Hall, Jackson, and surrounding counties and will guide you through the process.

How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?

You can typically walk on a new concrete driveway after 24 to 48 hours. Light vehicle traffic should wait at least 7 days. Full concrete cure time is 28 days, at which point the concrete reaches its design strength of 4,000 PSI. Greenstone provides a written care guide with every driveway installation outlining cure times, early-use restrictions, and when to apply the first protective sealer coat.

What is the best finish for a concrete driveway in Georgia?

The best finish depends on your priorities. Broom finish is the most practical for Georgia driveways — it provides slip resistance, is low-maintenance, and is the most affordable. Stamped concrete gives a premium decorative look mimicking brick, stone, or cobblestone but costs more and requires periodic resealing. Exposed aggregate offers a unique textured look with natural stone visibility and excellent durability. Greenstone offers all three finishes and helps you choose based on budget, aesthetic goals, and maintenance preferences.

Can you replace an asphalt driveway with concrete?

Yes. Greenstone Landscaping regularly removes old asphalt, gravel, or existing concrete driveways and replaces them with new concrete. The process includes full tear-out and disposal of the old surface, re-grading the sub-base, compacting new gravel, pouring fresh concrete with reinforcement, and finishing to your chosen style. Many Georgia homeowners upgrade from asphalt to concrete for its longer lifespan, lower maintenance, and higher property value.

Should I seal my concrete driveway in Georgia?

Yes — sealing a concrete driveway in Georgia is highly recommended. UV exposure, rain, and Georgia's occasional freeze-thaw cycles degrade unsealed concrete over time. A quality penetrating or acrylic sealer applied every 2 to 3 years protects against moisture penetration, oil stains, salt damage, and surface spalling. Greenstone applies a professional-grade sealer on every new driveway and offers resealing services for existing driveways.

“Greenstone replaced our cracked 20-year-old asphalt driveway with a beautiful stamped cobblestone concrete driveway. The crew was professional, the tear-out was clean, and the final result looks incredible. Neighbors keep asking who did it. Worth every penny.”

Robert M.

Loganville, GA

Stamped Cobblestone — 720 sq ft

“We got quotes from three contractors and Greenstone was competitive but what sold us was their thoroughness during the estimate. They explained base prep, reinforcement, control joints, and sealing in detail. The plain concrete driveway they poured is perfect — smooth, properly sloped, and exactly what we wanted.”

Angela K.

Plain Concrete — 640 sq ft

“Our exposed aggregate driveway is absolutely unique — no one else in the neighborhood has anything like it. Greenstone helped us pick the stone mix and the result is stunning. It's been two years and it still looks brand new with just one resealing.”
